class

Hello,

A class A possesses an instance c of a class C. Another class B has to modify c through C::setBlah(); method.

Is it bad to create an accessor C getC(); in A and then use A.getC().setBlah() ?

Or should I create a method A::setBlah(); that would call C::setBlah(); ? Isn't it annoying if there are several methods like that ?
